How To Select The Color Of Your Tile And Grout? Part I

Choosing the color of the tile and grout is an important task, whetaher you are installing it yourself or having someone doing it for you.

The grout and tile that you choose will play a large part in the visual aspect of your room, and if you are ready to look into what your options are and to make a final decision, there are a few things that you are going to have to keep in mind. Be sure to take that into account when choosing the color of the grout and tile.

1.Picking Out A Blend Or Contrasting Grout ColorIf you are choosing the grout color first do not forget that if the contrast between the tile and the grout is high the more the tile will stand out. The grout will almost not show if you have a color that blend with the tile.

2.Be Careful Of Picking Out White GroutWhen you are looking at grout color, remember that the white grout will need to be bleached to keep its look; otherwise, the color will run to gray fairly rapidly!
